2015

Dave Dillabo Fair Manager

elcome to the 64th annual Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair. On behalf of the board of directors and fair staff I would like to extend an invitation to you to attend this year’s fair as we celebrate “Country Nights & Carnival Lights,” a theme that is very reminiscent of the fair and harvest season in the Klamath Basin.

The fair is an iconic event in rural life and is many things to many people. To those participating in events like Livestock, Arts & Crafts, Rodeo, Destruction Derby and the Hay Squeeze Competitions, the fair brings much anticipation and excitement. For business owners, it’s a time to showcase their products and services. Many make new friends and reacquaint with old ones or stroll the midway and reminisce about fairs of yesteryear.

Some come for the smell of corn dogs and cotton candy or for a night out with friends to enjoy a Grandstand event. This is your fair. The more you bring to it, the more you and others will get out of it. The fair staff and board strive every year to make it the best we can possibly make it.

The uniqueness of the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair comes from the hearts and foresight of the people who have and continue to dedicate their efforts into the fair. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is enriched with tradition and history, all of which makes it one of the greatest county fairs on the west coast. Sixty four years ago the fair was founded and developed on the principles of being a family oriented event where the surrounding communities could gather for socializing, entertainment, education and friendly competition. Those founding principles have continued to play an integral role in the fair’s purpose throughout the past four years because of the dedication of past and present fair board members, staff, volunteers, exhibitors and fair patrons like yourself.

We continue to strive to provide the public a low cost event that the whole family can enjoy with their fellow community members. The great diversity of exhibits, entertainment and food have all played an integral role in developing the fair’s tradition of providing the public an educational and entertaining family oriented event that everyone can afford to attend and enjoy!

As you walk through the gates September 10th thru 13th, we invite you, your family and friends to enjoy the many traditional events and shows that you have come to know and love as well as some new entertainment we hope you will find enjoyable. This year’s fair will include the K9 Flying Dogs, where you will get the chance to see some of the most amazing and talented dogs in the nation perform tricks and thrill the audience; The Gypsy Time Travelers, who travel all across the United States in "Florence" their Recreational Castle, Blacksmith Shop and Stage Rig. They combine fabulous storytelling with anvil accompaniment and have created an award winning Stage Show that has been called "The Best in Family EDUTAINMENT;" Skip Banks the “Balloon Man,”a show that you must see to believe. If you are walking around the fair and see a huge crowd, laughing and holding their sides, it’s a good bet Skip has set up shop inside his giant balloon and has morphed into one of his colorful characters.

The Umpqua Bank Free Music Stage is power packed with a great lineup of live music including The Country Artist Tribute on Friday evening, featuring music of Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith and Jason Aldean, Andrea Pearson will take the stage each day and will prove to you why she is a highly talented country singer from Nashville, the Chihuahua Desert Band, who will provide a taste of Fiesta Band Music throughout the week and local talent including the Nephilim Band and Moodswing. Of course, some of last year’s crowd favorites such as the FREE PONY RIDES all week for kid’s to enjoy and the Barnyard Kid’s Rodeo filled with numerous exciting events for children of all ages to enjoy will all return to the fairgrounds to energize the crowd!

The fair staff and board of directors have worked extremely hard to provide the public an enjoyable, friendly and entertaining fun filled week! I would like to thank the board of directors, office staff and maintenance staff for their continued dedication as they strive for excellence throughout the year.

Donate For A Chan ce To Win!

NEW Daily Raffle Incentive!

Receive a raffle ticket for every $5 of admission donations.

This year’s fair will include the Klamath Basin’s largest carnival with 24 attractions, over 5,000 locally entered exhibits will be on display, an exciting free entertainment lineup everyday of the fair and many new features including your admission into the fair! For the past three years, the fair has featured a “Pay What You Can” admission and will continue with the same value oriented policy this year too, but with an added incentive!

The “Pay What You Can” admission policy serves as a stepping stone from the past “free admission policy” and helps to lay the foundation to secure a sustainable future. As the fair endures it’s fourth year of zero funding, the time has never been more immediate and the need has never been greater. Individually, our impact of giving is limited, but together as a community we have the unlimited potential and ability to preserve the future of our fair for generations to come.

The “Pay What You Can” admission policy allows you the customer, the choice of donating an admission fee for attending the fair. While paying for admission is not required, the fair kindly ask for your support by donating what you can. You have the choice of paying the suggested value, less than, more than or nothing at all. Your admission donation will help promote a sustainable future for the fair and allow everyone to enjoy the fair at reasonable rates.

NEW this year, the fair will be offering a daily grand prize raffle item for those patrons who choose to donate an admission fee. For every $5 of admission fees donated, the patron

will receive one grand prize raffle ticket. The daily drawing will take place at 7:30 pm each evening of the fair, Thursday thru Sunday!

Winners do not need to be present to win. Grand prize raffle items are as follows. Thursday: Fair Entertainment Package that includes 6 tickets to each of the grandstand events and 4 VIP Carnival Passes good all week of the fair (Over a $500 Value), Friday: Grizzly Desert Tan 75qt. Ice Box w/ accessories (Over a $500 Value), Saturday: High Noble Gloss Black Gun Safe 72x42x27 ($1500 Value), Sunday: Apple I Pad (Over a $500 Value).

We are very fortunate to have incredible community supporters and are optimistic that together our local and surrounding communities will continue to show their support during these challenging economic times by donating an admission fee. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair continues to strive to remain sustainable after losing 100% of the state funding due to the State of California’s budget deficit. Locally, this support equaled $272,000 and accounted for 42% of the fair’s annual budget. This loss of state funding has significantly impacted the daily operations and continues to seriously affect the fair’s revenue stream and future.

The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair sincerely appreciates the generous support from the local and surrounding communities as we strive to continue a tradition that has served the people of the Klamath Basin for 64 years! Celebrate “Country Nights and Carnival Lights” at the Tulelake Butte Valley Fair, September 10-13!

internees. Due to the harsh conditions of the Center, strife and controversy arose. This led to the construction of a stockade, with a jail, and the implementation of martial law.

The World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument was established on December 5, 2008 serving as a reminder of the hardships endured on the home front during World War II. The two sites, the Tule Lake Segregation Center, located in Newell, CA and Camp Tulelake, located along Hill Road just west of Tulelake, CA, represent the unique history of the small community living here and the nation during this time period.

Camp Tulelake in its origins began as a Civilian Conservation Corps Camp in 1935.

During its seven years of operation Camp Tulelake housed young men between the ages of 17 and 25 who were employed as a measure to reduce the rampant unemployment and economic chaos that gripped the nation. During their time here these men rehabilitated and expanded the use of public lands. In 1943 it was transformed to hold 100 men from the Tulelake Segregation Center who refused to answer the Loyalty Questionnaire. Later that same year it was used to house a group of 243 internees from other war relocation centers to break a farm strike at the Segregation Center. In 1944 it was then converted into a prisoner of war (POW) camp. Remodeled by 150 Italian POWs, it held 800 German POWs to work in the Tulelake Basin helping local farmers harvest and tend their fields.

The Tule Lake Segregation Center, beginning as one of ten relocation centers established throughout the United States under the auspices of the War Relocation Authority, held 18,789 of the 120,000 men, women, and children of Japanese ancestry who were displaced from their homes and forcibly moved to the Centers. It was transformed into a Segregation Center in 1943 when a Loyalty Questionnaire was used to separate the supposedly “loyal” from the “disloyal”

Have you ever wanted to walk on water? Now is your chance!

Bobble Lagoon is a unique ride where you climb into a ball and run around in it (on water). Think of a hamster spinning around in a little ball….. that’s what Bobble Lagoon is like! Sounds almost like a form of child abuse, but, as it turns out, it’s one of the greatest forms of child/adult entertainment we’ve seen in years!

Bobble Lagoon is a 30 foot round pool of about 20 inches of water where children (and adults up to 250 lbs.) are placed in a large inflatable clear ball and let loose to run amok on the surface of the water. You can run, jump, flip or just lay back and relax.

You’ll also enjoy the Caribbean theme and feel as if you’re in a tropical paradise. WELCOME TO BOBBLE LAGOON!

Have you ever wanted to pitch horse shoes? You can at the Horse Shoe Pitching Contest on Saturday, September 12 at 9:00 a.m. at the Grandstand Arena.

For those of you who don’t know, horse shoes is an outdoor game played between two people (or two teams of two people) using four horse shoes and two throwing targets (stakes) set in a sandbox area. The game is played by the players alternating turns tossing horse shoes at stakes in the ground, which are traditionally placed 40 feet apart. Modern games use a more stylized U-shaped bar, about twice the size of an actual horse shoe.

Did you know that pitching horse shoes goes back to the days of the Roman army? There are disagreements about whether it began with a round ring or actual horse shoes, but in some form, it was played by officers and foot soldiers alike. The game’s long route included England and then the soldiers of our own country in the Revolutionary War. You may remember horse shoes being played at family reunions, picnics or potluck dinners with the clanks of ringers and the thuds of misses, accompanied by laughter and kidding from brothers, cousins, and maybe an uncle or two who may not have played since the last reunion. Of course, that was no excuse for missing the stake!

Come on out and pitch a few “shoes” or watch a very popular recreation sport. It may bring back a few memories or create wonderful new ones and perhaps even create a tradition in your family!

Be sure to look for The Rawhide Express when you’re out-and-about! Hop on at one of the train stops and Engineer Ken will give you a tour of the fair. You’ll also be making your feet happy!

The Rawhide Express is truly a remarkable electric and solar powered trackless touring train. The “Environmentally Safe” train emits neither smoke nor fuel odors and carries families in the quiet comfort of their own coach touring around the fairgrounds. The train also has a solar panel charging system so that the batteries maintain a charge as it is driven around.

The Rawhide Express is 4 feet wide and over 40 feet long, with a carrying capacity of up to 35 people at one time. All seats face forward for a “Grand View”. Custom made in Belgium, the design features covered coaches all out of very sturdy fiberglass.

Now hop on The Rawhide Express and say “All Aboard”!

Take flight and soar into the air on the Power Jump Bungee. It will take your breath away! Go as high as 25’ in the air while doing back flips and somersaults as the two bungee cords guide you safely back to the inflatable trampoline landing position each time you come down. Then jump up and fly again and try something new!! Exhilarating for all ages.

The Power Jump Bungee is a unique amusement ride and set up in a safe, controlled environment. Don’t miss the opportunity to fly like an eagle and see the views of the fair, all while getting your adrenaline pumping!

Have you ever wanted to be a rock star or on American Idol?

You can pretend on our Karaoke Fun stage!

Karaoke is a wildly popular pastime that involves singing the lyrics of a song while accompanied by recorded background music. It allows people to sing and interpret their favorite songs while uninterrupted by the original singer.

Karaoke has obtained global popularity, with particular success in the United States and Asia.

Stop by and participate or just sit back and listen. Please come with a sense of humor and possibly earplugs for some less talented performers and extreme situations.

Some amateur performers may shock you with their unsuspected talent.

Who knows? We might have the next American Idol originate right here at the fair!

Karaoke Fun can be found on Stage #2 Thursday at 2:00 pm & 5:00 pm, Friday & Saturday at 11:00 am & 9:00 pm, and Sunday at 11:00 am.

How Does He Fit Inside That Balloon, or What Makes that Balloon Shimmy and Shake?

Skip Banks, widely known as The Balloon Man, refers to himself as “A New Vaudevillian”. Performing to a mix of classic songs and sound effects, crazy situations, with colorful props, and all combined with visual comedy – this is one Specialty act with a capital “S” that you will never see performed by anyone else. Try visiting his web site to watch his zany videos that say more than we can ever say in print.

Throughout the performance Skip and his faithful followers stop off for hilarious renditions of Cheech and Chong, Michael Jackson, William Hung, Cool Moe Dee, Chubby Checker, William Shatner and an ever-changing cast of family friendly characters.

If you are walking around the Fair and see a huge crowd, laughing and holding their sides, it’s a good bet Skip has set up shop inside his giant balloon and has morphed into one of his colorful characters.

Michel Olson and Christy Horne are the husband and wife team who have history ringing in the ears of millions of people across the USA! They travel all across the United States in "Florence" their Recreational Castle, Blacksmith Shop and Stage Rig. They combine fabulous storytelling with anvil accompaniment and have created an award winning Stage Show that has been called "The Best in Family EDUTAINMENT." Michel and Christy have created 25 different shows featuring Christy's incredible storytelling and Michel's Master Blacksmithing. Michel creates between 4 - 25 items at each show - items like, unicorn shoes, pony shoes, dragons, s hooks, salt spoons, belt hooks and many others. In 2012 over 5,000 items were made and given away to audience members in free drawings following every show.

Gypsies, Tinkers or Travelers as they were called across Europe and Asia, were the first of the traveling Vaudevillian style entertainers and the last of the traveling Master Craftsmen. Michel and Christy keep these traditions alive for future generations.

The popularity and variety of the K9 KINGS is great entertainment for many different all ages to enjoy. Each show features up to THIRTEEN variety of breeds, the ONLY daredevil dog agility, one of the RAREST breeds in the world, the FASTEST frisbee® dog in the world, the LARGEST meet greet & pet area, the ONLY "comic book hero" and MULTIPLE trainers. This fun mix of music, costumes, comedy, audience participation and high-flying trick dogs has become a PROFESSIONAL ENTERTAINMENT ACT LIKE NO OTHER IN THE WORLD!

Over the last 18 years J.D. has developed his own unique approach to the sport. As a kid and adult he was always involved with being an entertainer or athlete and growing up he always had a passion for animals. His company K9 Kings Entertainment seems to be a reflection of his life story combining all of his talents. He’s been blessed with entertaining millions of people around the United States with his special and diverse team of dogs.

In addition to entertaining he also loves competing around the country at disc dog events and has earned numerous titles like four time world finalist, FDDO national champions, multiple state champs and two-time Purina national finalist.

He’s also been featured on Animal Planet’s Pet Star and appeared on the first and only dog reality show on CBS called “Greatest American Dog” where over 100 million people saw him compete for $250,000 with his dog “Galaxy”.

SCHEDULE

Long before J.D. ever watched one of his canines launch into the air, he had an appreciation for terms like Big Air! Hang time! For 13 years J.D. was a professional snowboard competitor. Thus it seems quite appropriate that his team of canine athletes would continue his tradition of amazing high flying stunts. In the mid 90’s, while still an active snowboard competitor he met a disc dog entertainer who introduced him to the sport of canine flying disc. It wasn’t long before he was hooked on both the competition of canine disc and its amazing way of providing crowd pleasing entertainment.

he Jr. Livestock Auction will take place on Sunday, September 13th @ 2:00 p.m. in the Jock’s Sale Pavilion near the livestock area. Everyone is invited to attend the auction. This year’s auction will include Beef, Rabbits, Swine, Goats, Sheep, Poultry, Turkey and Wood/Metal projects exhibited by 4-H and FFA members.

the auctioneer and sale staff to know who the final bidder is and in order to record the sale.

Bidding and purchasing on the sale lots benefits the entire community.

By purchasing a sale lot you not only help the Tulelake Rotary Club, but you are supporting the months of dedication and labor by the 4-H or FFA members. The projects require the exhibitors to put in numerous hours of hard work as they are responsible for the development and health of their project.

During the sale, there will be an auctioneer plus three sale ring attendants, who will acknowledge your bids when you wave your hand or bid number. When you feel you want to bid, just hold up your buyer’s number and the ring attendant will take your bid. Once you’ve bid pay attention to the ring attendant to see if he acknowledges your bid. If the auctioneer took your bid, you will know, as he will be looking to see if anyone else bids more. If the ring attendant starts looking at you again, another bidder has out bid you and he will be looking to see if you want to bid again.

For first-time buyers, the experience can seem a little intimidating because they’ve never bought at an auction before. After reading this article, you’ll realize there is no reason not to participate because buying a fair animal is very easy and is an exciting experience!

The sale begins sharply at 2:00 p.m., so you should arrive a little early in order to register as a potential buyer and get your buyer’s number. Upon arrival at Jock’s Sale Pavilion, visit the Rotary Tent where the assistants will help you complete the paperwork to register as a potential buyer. After completing the paperwork you will receive a buyer’s number that you may use to bid with during the auction. The buyer number allows

After receiving your buyer’s number, you are set and ready to bid on the animals of your choice! Many buyers will arrive early prior to the auction in order to view the animals in the barns and visit with the 4-H and FFA exhibitors about their projects.

Contrary to popular belief, you will not unknowingly bid on an animal by inadvertently scratching your arm or sneezing. The first time you bid you may need to make sure a spotter sees you, but after that they will watch you closely and make sure they have your bid if you bid again.

I can’t stress this enough, bidding is the easiest thing in the world. The auctioneer and ring attendants are there to help the Rotary Club and the exhibitors get their animals sold and they do a wonderful job of it.

2015 TULELAKE-BUTTE VALLEY FAIR GUIDE

The Grand and Reserve Grand Champion market animal of the specie selling with be the first to sell. After the champions, the rest of the animals will sell in descending order of the judging results. Prices per specie will vary, but expect to pay about $3.50-$10.00 per pound for a beef which will weigh between 1050-1450 pounds. Sheep will sell for around $6.00-$15.00 per pound and will weigh between 110-160 pounds. Swine will sell for around $4.00-$8.00 per pound and weigh between 215-280 pounds.

After you have purchased your animal, there is a little bit of paperwork to complete. All animals go to a designated slaughter house, but you get to choose where it will be processed for the cut & wrap of the meat. If you don’t have a certain place, don’t worry, the people handling the sale can inform you of your choices and help you select the one that is most convenient for you.

You are almost finished; you now have to pay for your animal, which can be done either by check or credit card.

The meat from the sale lots that you purchased will be ready to be picked-up from the processor of your choice in about two weeks following the sale. You will definitely enjoy eating the meat you’ve purchased as it is always a little sweeter knowing you’ve helped out a very deserving exhibitor.

Dry LAke RAnch H&N photo and story by Lee Juillerat

ulelake-Butte Valley Fair will be honoring Ray & Kathy Ackley of the Dry Lake Ranch located south of Tulelake near the community of Tionesta as the 2015 Farmer & Rancher of the year during the Farmers & Ranchers Appreciation Dinner held on Thursday, September 10th at Jock’s Sale Pavilion during this year’s fair.

Ray Ackley is a second generation rancher who has developed a bustling cattle ranch that also grows high-quality hay. Kathy Ackley was the President of the Fair Board of Directors in 1997 and served as a board member for the Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair for 5 years from 1993 to 1997. Together they own and manage the Dry Lake Ranch. They are both great agriculture advocates and supporters of the area. Ray was recently recognized as the Modoc County Rancher of the Year in 2014 by the Modoc County Cattlemen’s Association.

Ray’s father, Orvin, was a World War II Army veteran who won a Tulelake Basin homestead after his name was drawn from the pickle jar. Orvin and his wife, Berneta, selected a homestead in the Copic Bay area.

Although Ackley grew up on the homestead, where his family raised pigs, chickens and, eventually, a small herd of cows, and despite his deep involvement with Tulelake High School’s FFA program, he originally planned to be an engineer, not a rancher.

That changed during his junior year at Tulelake High, when his father asked his 16-year-old son if he’d like to “partner up” on buying a ranch south of Newell called the Tionesta Ranch. Before he was out of school, Ackley was the co-owner of a ranch.

“The first 10 years, I thought it probably wasn’t the right choice,” he says.

The ranch provided winter feed for the family’s expanding cattle operation. Within a short time, the Ackleys traded the Tionesta Ranch to the Forest Service for a piece of land called Dry Lake, so they named their new property the Dry Lake Ranch. The father and son also received a range permit for lands that surrounded the ranch.

Life was busy on other fronts, too. While in high school, Ackley met and fell in love with Kathy Anderson. She was still in school when

she and Ackley were married in 1964. They’ll celebrate their 50th anniversary Dec. 19.

“We didn’t have to,” Kathy quips of their teenage marriage. “We just did.”

Just as the family and ranching operation were expanding, Ackley and his father bought land along Highway 139, which has become the heart of the ranch’s farming operations.

Ackley says it took years of leveling and rock picking, a process that continues, to make the land productive. Ten percent of the hay from the ranch’s 1,000-plus acres of irrigated lands is shipped overseas while most of the rest goes to race tracks and elite feed stores.

From its small beginnings, the ranch’s cowcalf operation now has about 500 head of Angus and Angus breed cattle.

Because of endemic economic uncertainties inherent with ranching, along with what he calls “government stupidity,” Ackley says he and other ranchers and farmers have relied on and benefited from technology that has increased production and from research from college agricultural programs. He’s also learned to focus on what works, and what doesn’t.

In the 1950s, his father tried to grow potatoes, an experiment that flopped.

“My dad promised my mom and my sister and myself, ‘I’ll never ever do that again,’ ” Ackley remembers with a chuckle. “This country is only good for cattle, hay and grain, and we’ve been successful using that philosophy.”

Rancher credits help from family members Ray Ackley says he’s benefited from working with his father, Orvin, while growing up and for many years when they were partners at their Dry Lake Ranch near the Modoc County community of Tionesta.

“It’s his background I’ve paid attention to,” Ackley says. “But you have to be innovative, too.”

He’s practiced that philosophy by pursuing available opportunities to supplement the income at his Dry Lake Ranch. Ackley does various construction projects, such as building roads, power lines and pipelines. He’s bought, sold and freighted hay. Most summers, he uses farm equipment on contract forest fire

Ray & Kathy Ackley operations. He drilled wells in 2000, a year before the Klamath Basin Water Crisis, when water was cut off from irrigators, and in 2001 sold water from those wells to neighboring ranches.

For several years, Ackley combined work and pleasure by operating a hunting and fishing guide service.

During the 1980s, when his and other cattle herds were threatened by scours, a calf diarrhea that causes more financial loss to cow-calf producers than any other diseaserelated problem, Ackley enlisted the help of a young veterinarian named Doug Whitsett.

At his own expense, Ackley participated in a trial program that created a successful vaccine for scours, which had been causing a 30-percent death rate.

He’s quick to emphasize the ranch isn’t just about him. He credits his wife, Kathy, for overseeing an always swelling amount of government required paperwork, including contracts and legal matters. Their son, Orvin Ray “Lucky,” is a partner with the ranch.

The couple has three grown daughters, Rhonda and Joe Hemphill, Diane Patterson, and Robin and Craig Huntsman.

he Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair will be premiering a brand new event at this year’s fair. If you’re looking for a thrill-aminute, fun-filled activity for kids, with extreme spectator entertainment value, check out the Kid’s Barnyard Rodeo event at this year’s fair! This exciting, new children’s event provides the youngsters a chance to participate in numerous fun events in a rodeo like atmosphere providing friendly competition between the children! The Barnyard Rodeo provides events for children ages 3-15. The Barnyard Rodeo events will include, Mutton Bustin, Greased Pig Scramble, Steer Dummy Roping, Potato Sack Races, Egg & Spoon Races, Stick Horse Races and a Watermelon Rolling contest. The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair is proud to offer this free, fun-filled family event on Sunday, September 13th starting at 10:00 a.m. at this year’s fair!

For more information about participating in the event, information and entry forms can be found in the Entry Handbook, which are available at Big R, Grange Co-op and at the OSU Extension Office in Klamath Falls, on the fair’s website at www.tbvfair.com, at the fair office in Tulelake or by contacting the fair office @ 530-667-5312 or tulefair@cot.net Mutton Bustin’ is one of the most popular events and offers youngsters between the ages of 4 to 8 years old, weighing less than 60 lbs. an opportunity to try to ride a sheep for a full six seconds! If they stay on for the full six second ride they will receive a score just like any rough stock rodeo rider would! The highest score of the round wins. If none of the participants ride for the full six seconds, the rider who stayed on the longest wins the round. The top three riders from each round will receive placing awards and ALL of the riders in each round will receive a participation award.

This fun-filled event creates non-stop action and excitement as the children and our wooly bully sheep grab the attention of numerous fairgoers. Whether it’s a one second or six second ride, these youngsters are in for a wild, exciting and memorable time! The added production of funny commentary, in-arena/chute rider interviews and crowd interaction will make this one of the most popular spectator events at the fair!

The Pig Scramble is a squealing, scrambling good time and is as much fun for the kids as it is for the spectators watching! Contestants between the ages of 4 to 12 years of age and weighing less than 85 lbs race after clever and wily young pigs turned loose in the arena. The contestant’s objective is to catch and hold on to a slippery pig in the grass arena. Be prepared: if a contestant catches a pig, the pig will come home to live with the contestant! ALL of the scramblers in each round will receive a participation award. Tell-tale squeals of delight will be heard throughout the fairgrounds!

40

Steer Dummy Roping is a good ol’ ropin’ fun time, letting the kids experience where the Old West came from. The cattle didn’t always want to “get along” on the trail so cowboys became skilled in roping the disagreeable animals. Children aged 5 to15 can participate in roping or “catching” a “dummy” steer by twirling the rope in the air, flinging it forward, and neatly bending it around the head of the dummy calf that is his/her target. It doesn’t matter if the rope misses, it’s all about having fun! The little buckaroos will have a dadgum blast with the dummy (as will the older cowboys and cowgirls at heart)!

The Potato Sack Races will provide great fun for the competitors and excitement for the spectators! Open to competitors ages 3 to 15 to hop on out into the arena and race like super spuds!! Individual Potato Sack Race: Participants will run to the sack, put both feet in and begin hopping toward the finish line. Contestants must keep both feet in sack and at least one hand on the sack at all times. The sack must remain as close to the waist as possible and should not fall below the knees. The first racer to the finish line wins. Three-legged Potato Sack Race: Two people form a team to race. One person put a left leg and the other person put a right leg in a potato sack.

They stand side-by-side and race together from the beginning to the end. The teamwork is the key to finish the race successfully. Usually, walking and running are the more proper method to race rather than hopping or jumping. The first team reaches the finish line wins! Did you know that sack racing was made an official Olympic event in the 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis? The good old-fashioned potato sack game is a great past-time and will bring back many childhood memories.

The Egg & Spoon Race will have kids and adults “cracking up” by offering a fun and exciting event for the youngsters! Open to children ages 3 to 15. All contestants will be in the arena at the start line. An egg and spoon will be given to each contestant. Contestants must race with the egg in the spoon, holding the spoon by the handle, and far enough so judges can see that no finger or thumb touches the egg. On the signal, contestants race to far end of arena, around a barrel and back to the finish line. The first contestant back with their egg wins.

Which came first? The Egg or the Spoon?

The Stick Horse Race provides great ol’time fun for the youngsters! We’re calling all jockeys, ages 3 to 10, to compete in the Barnyard Rodeo Stick Horse Races! We will provide the stick horses, you provide the fun!

• Race 1 (10 yards): 3-4 year olds • Race 2 (20 yards): 5-7 year olds • Race 3 (30 yards): 8-10 year olds Watermelon Roll Contest is a fun event for children of all ages. We all love the taste of watermelon, but have you ever tried to roll one on the ground and get it to go where you want it to? We guarantee this to be one of the funniest games yet!

ave you ever wondered who maintains all of the beautiful flower gardens at the fairgrounds?

It’s the people of the great Klamath Basin who are responsible for the beautiful scenery that the flower gardens provide us all! In 1994, the idea of the Adopt-A-Spot Gardens was created by the fair manager at that time, Cindy Wright. The concept of the flower gardens was to allow the people of the local communities to actively participate at the fair throughout the summer by managing and caring for their specific flower garden. The care takers are then rewarded at fair-time by receiving up to $200 for their hard work and dedication put forth in their flower garden. The beautiful exhibits are a reflection of the pride that the competitive gardeners have for the community and the fairgrounds. The Adopt –A –Spot gardens have continued to flourish and grow in numbers as the years have passed by. This year, there will be 24 Adopt-A-Spot Gardens available for the public to enjoy.

The Tulelake-Butte Valley Fair would like to give a special thanks to all of the Adopt-ASpot flower gardeners for their continued dedication and contributions that they provide while greatly enhancing the beauty of the fairgrounds! If you are interested in participating in the 2016 Adopt-ASpot Flower program, call the fair office at (530) 667-5312 or email tulefair@cot.net.

2015 TULELAKE-BUTTE VALLEY FAIR GUIDE

Stage #2 12:00 p.m. • 4:00 p.m.

Andrea Pearson the stage with Grammy Award winner Bryan White. Industry insiders and her myriad of engaged fans already know her as a captivating live performer with a voice that is unrivaled in Nashville.

Though Andrea Pearson may not yet be a household name, she is on the brink of changing all of that. Over the past few years, she has opened shows and toured with some of the biggest names in country music including Brooks & Dunn, Wynonna, Vince Gill, The Band Perry, Sherrie Austin, Lee Ann Womack and Tanya Tucker, and has often shared

In addition to her talents as an artist, Andrea is a very prolific and in demand songwriter, have written more than 500 songs since she first came to Nashville from British Columbia.

Though she hasn’t had a major cut yet (she is considered by many to one of the most brilliant ‘under the radar’ writers in Nashville), her music has already caught the attention of Celine Dion, Reba McEntire, Lee Ann Womack and LeAnn Rimes to name a few.

As if there’s time for anything else, Andrea was a finalist on CMT’s Next Superstar series, appeared on ‘Private Lives of Nashville Wives’, had guest starring roles in other artists’ music videos, runs her own home studio, and

recently made her debut on the Grand Ole Opry with Bryan White. And when she’s not out center stage, you can find her singing back up for a number of major artists including Reba, Linda Davis, and Carolyn Dawn Johnson.

The only passion equivalent to music for Andrea is her love for animals. She owns three dogs, a cat and a horse and spends her extra time fostering dogs and raising awareness for the humane society and animal rescue.

2015 is shaping up to be a banner year for Andrea Pearson on tour. She’ll be performing at state and country fairs, festivals and clubs throughout the country, affording her fans a chance to see her from coast to coast. She is also at work on a new album being produced

by Bryan White.

All things point to the likelihood that Andrea Pearson will not remain ‘under the radar’ for long

Hog Wild Hog Wild is an energetic, highly entertaining and dedicated cover band that is true to the songs they cover, yet put their own stamp on them. The band focuses on songs you don’t hear other bands doing every weekend. Their songs are instantly recognizable favorites from artists like INXS, The Eagles, The Beatles, & Rolling Stones to Golden Earring and Gin Blossoms and range from the 60’s – 90’s.

After playing Southern Oregon for over 20 years, Hog Wild has been reborn with a new lineup that adds experience and musical versatility to the band. The new 5 piece lineup for Hog Wild still features Dale Visage & Tom Bacon, along with new faces Dan Day, Scott Wright, and Jim Marvin.
